They would still follow the rules of the sim, described by it;s underlying architecture- as our own do . Unless you want to go down the rabbit hole of infinite rulebreaking regress,..and all for no reason whatsoever.
People imagine that "anything is possible" in a sim..but that's not actually the case. That's just an artifact of their viewpoint from the ui..combined with a limited imagination. Ever find yourself on a map border in a game? Ever try to command wow to play mario bros 2? Doesn't work like that. At some point, the sheer force of time makes everything -impossible- in a sim, as the whole thing grinds down on the ticks and nothing works or moves and then..uh oh, crash.
Everything you've ever seen in any sim is the product of meticulous rule following and limiting. The actual rules at play may be as hidden from you as the rules your own mind might be following, and as hidden from us as whatever rules govern reality, if there are any - but nothing about that, or your -seeming- possibilities will indicate that there is anything other-than at play, breaking this or that.
